It is from Forney's Philadelphia Prescof the 9th of August, and will imply, repay our read era fora careful. perusal : Twa Samoa Rumen —Semi-occaaionally, *"between the glirdpses of the moon,". we get 4 stray number of that excently weekly, the &oil tith Amnions gotewei, which oontaltia a larger and bettg digest of .old worldinews than any othqr, newspaper on this side ofthe Atlantic. Id a recent number, the editor—we may now call him the surviving editor _as his excellent aria tenanted associate;ittibert Davidson, wee, one of the gallant'beventyannth Blighlandent who fell at the battle of Bull. Run, on the 21st ultimo—the editor recorded the mut that sevr eral of the principal military 'leaders of the United States in the present noble struggle are descendants of t3ccdolniten, General Scott hay'r ing an ancestor mho feßat Culloden, and',Secr retary Cameron being of the family of the "Great Lochiel." Mr. William Nesbitt, of New York, following this up, in a subsequent number of the paper, says l. "By accounts I have lately received from Kirkcudbright—my native place---I learn that General McClellan is n'tiescendant of a Very ad cleat and illustrious Galloway' family-rthe Mci- Ciellints of Kirkcudbright and Cornbie; 'allied to the ancient 'Knights of Lochinvar.' The fami ly were ennobled' by Charlesl,in 1688, the then representative, Sir Robert McClellan of Bornbie being created a peer _tinder the title of Lord Kirkcudbright. The last lord of that name died about _thirty years ago, in rather reduced circumstances, leaving no issue. The `title is now extinct. ' The ruins of the old family castre now form the most: conspicuous object in the ancient burgh of Kirkcudbright, on the banks bf the river Dee. Many:of the deeds of the Me- , Clellans , are still recounted in the legendary lore of the district. The name of McCleilaa has Peen alwaYs associated with all that ..s - noble patriotic and daring, and I am proud to think that in the person, of the worthy. American scion, it is, still so. i Sir William ,McClellan, an ancestor of the above, family, also fell at Flodd,err." ' , In point of fact, Camden Grey.

We wish that Mr. Nesbitt has ',told us some thing about the. Camerons. We must. endee ,- 1 vor to .relate what he has left untold about them. . ; That.a gallant Oanieron should command !a regiment..called_ the Seventy-ninth, was ei tremely, appropriate. 1 / 4 1.n 'the British airily the Seventy-ninth Regiment is called "The Cameron Highlanders.' I The Clan Cinnamon l which had a common origin with the Clan Chattan, was one of the twelve great Scottish' sepia ror families entitled to have supporters to their heraldic arms-la tilignity'peculiari beyond 'those twelve, to pe o is alone. - In. the fourteenth century, the Ch - erons and the Chattips divided--on a matter bi landed, property-4.nd their respective chitin-- pions, thirty against thirty, fought that cart ' braced combat at Perth, in the.year 1896, be fore King Robert. 111., his nobility and court, which Scott hen: an.'.-iSFF 4, EideellY •flescrilied m 1 "The Fair Maid of Perth." The Charnerons conouered„and the Qlan Chattans never recov ered the disgrace of the defeat. , It is asserted by Scottish historiana, that the real name of the Chui phameron or Camenin was Maeerruisi. The founder of the race was desdended, it was" said; from a younger son - bf the royal house of Denmark, who.assisted at the restoration of Fergus 11, in 401. This proge*- tor had rtpecullarity'in his nasal organ, and the Gaelic term Oaanterim, i. e. Wryness, fist gitran to the indiiiiltud; was eventually assur.h. ed by the clan aol'its actual patrptyrido. . . . The CaMerons had their:; seat In Lochaber, as far back .as wt., be distinctly traced. The more.. modern 'possessions_ of Lochiel and Locherkaig, -situated on the, 'lrestern ` side of the Lcehy, .in Perthshire,_ :were :.:originally . granted by the_Lord of .the Isles to the founder of clan &mild, from whose descendauti they passed' to the Camerons. After the defeat Of the clan . Chethm, on the Lich. of Perth the elder. branch.," ender the name of bfacHarteiL, Made a neyrslan ; but the second son, (Janie ron of.

After the nine], amount of fighting with their neighbors and rivals, during the ; next ,century, Sir Allen Cameron; succeeded by his son Sir Ewen, addekgreatly by_ conquest to the family pot- ' sessions. In the middle of the seventeenth ceohYy there, was a second Sir Ewen Cameron,' one of, the heroes of, that age, who was the bud .of th e : h dares to submit to Cromwell, who finitly obtained his submission on tie honorable ,terma, Simply .oni his parole; and without oath or bond, of living in peace with " the powers that be." Pull idemnity was made to him and his tenants and follewers for all hmiste, onstahaed fmn the Commonwetdtli's troops, and : complete 'idemnity was granted to all the ,Cameroun.: ',whist, as lair Evan Oanieroa is generally called, lived in peace until the Restoration .and remained in trampfil, .Possession of his proPerty, until the RevolutiO of 1688, when, refusing a title and a large B I M of money offered him by William ' of Oran e, on the condition of .remaining .: neutral, e joined the standard of Tames:lL, 'which-2W been raised by Viscount 'Thnidee.. fle • led his men gallantly at the battle of Miorankle, at which, aftet:Dttudtte awl =en, he took own hi mend of .this men, and won the victory in ... an hour--But•Calenalteannen, who sueceedS - in...thie- - ' signaix•• Psidatita' r linespagityo co, thli Nadaelhasiksarvilt itiOfe biwgratd ddirthe-Clamtiftuortiatbraid 'WWI eldeat son.' lochiel died in 1719, at the age. Of ninety-La *sin, limiest, loyal man. Of this Sir Evan Cameron, Donald, the chiv alric chief usually_, known an "the gentle_ Lo= cliiel," was , the grandson. Thomas Campbell; the pOct, truly stab* that, so important was his influence among theltigliland chiefs, it de peaded on his joining -with his clan whether the standard or Prince Charles shonld be raised or not 1745. He was well aware of the hope leafiness of the condtiot: . butthe Prince appease to hie loyalty, and to-that he sacrificed his judgment. "Had the rest of the clans assem bled on the field of Culloden ,behaved like the Camerons and the AthOle Ilighlandem," Dr, Black says, 4 &(..n. had wren sustained therri in the .gallant attack, the name of Cumberland would not have acquired so infamous an immortality in the Highlands of Scotland, and the British would have been spared'the disgrace afterwards 'brought upon it by the ignomini' oil convention of Cketer-Seven: lard Mahon, desCribing Lochiel, says he was "full of courage, hospi tality and honor ; a true model of that chival rous character Which, poets have feigned oftener than fotind, in feudal elite:s3l" and again, "hip eniugi in war, his courtesy and charity in peace, are recorded even ,by his political (he coeld have no private) enemies." Lochiel, who was wounded at Culloden, shared the dangers of Prince Charles' flight, and accompanied him to Fronde in September, 1746. "He went," Lord Mahon touchingly records, "but not with him departed his re membrance from the Highlanders. For years and years did his name continue enshrined in their hearts and familiar to their tongues ; than ,plaintive ditties, resounding with his exploitS, and inviting ' his return.' Among the 'forfeitures which, followed the ,Rebellion of the Forty-five as it is called, were these of the ,I.lochiel estates. Eventually, they were restored, and still remain in possession of the Cameron amily. In August,. 1798, letters of service, authorii big him to raise a regiment, were issued to Allan Cameron of Errach, by the British Gov ernment, No bounty was allowed, as is usual, but the men were recruited at the sole expense of the officers. In 1745, and again in 1746, the I clan Cameron numbered about 800 men ' and the regiment was soon raised in 1794. Allan Cameron was appoiAted to command "the 'Cameron Ilighhmdefir," Which hi the Seventy ninth regiment of infantry in the Britt& army. They : were in the. - unfortunate wire paign in , Flanders in 1796, and, went to. the West tidies in the same year, and sequently served in the expedition to the Helder in Egypt ; under Sir John Moore` in Portugal, until he , fell at...Corm:lmi; in the 1 expedition' to Zealand; from 1810 to 1814, in 1 the Peninsular War ; and at the battles of Quatre Bras and Waterloo. From the time tlie Ciumnon Highlarelers . were embodied, in. 179 , down to the memorable _ 18th of dune (Waterloo day) in 1815; ib3 total of killed and ivokinded. was 1,188. Their Colonel, who became Liente nant General, Sir Allan Cameron, died'in 182)3. At the battle of. Fuentes d'Honor, in MO, 1811, ins aldest son, Lieutenant •Colonel Owner= was 'killed. It seems destined that the :Cameron shall attest their Welty by the life-blood of their nearest flowing on the field of battle. Either of the Oamerons, who have fallen combat, might truly and proudly utter the stir ring words !which the poet put into , the mouth of ' the gentle Lochiel : Though my perishing ranks should be strewed in their gore, Like Ocerin , Weecls heigied bri the' 'surf-beaten shore, Lochiel, untainted by fight or by chains, While tbekingdom of life in his bosom remains, Shall victor exalt, or In death be laid low, With back to`the field, and his feet to the foe And leaving in battle'no blot on his name, ' Look proudly to Heaven from the death bed of fame.. • I FROM GEN, BANK'S OOLUMN. MONTGOMERY' COUNTY, Mn., Sept. 2 An eye-witness states that the affair at Con rad's Ferry, a week- ago, was as follows : A party of Union scouts crossed the river, took two prisoners, in arms, and four horses. Reach ing the river, on their return, they succeeded in getting two horses over; when they were attacked and compelled to let the prisoners go The next day a battery appeared opposite our entrenchments and commenced'shelling us. No battery being there at ' the time, our men re sponded with their muskets and rifles. Three days subsequent to the exchange of courtesies, a large rebel camp was discovered to be within range of out rifle batteries, and near Leesburg. An active bombardment soon caused the rebels to leave their quarters for a safer po sition, a mile, at least, further front the river. Our artillerists say that they threw shells from their rifled guns over and beyond the town of Leesburg. Information given by negroes, induced a search yesterday, south of Poolesville, for arms, supposed to be intended, for Maryland rebels in the rebel cause. The search w a s. successful. Some twelve or fifteen complete cavalry equip ments were discovered and retained by our scouts. Residents of •the neighborhood assert, however, that the equipinents belonged to a company of home guard cavalry which was raised last winter, to guard against a rising of the negroes ; that the company was outfitted by the State, but owing to the distance from the'placiof assembling at which many of the members , ftved, the company was disbanded be_ fore General Patterson took command of the department. The captain and some of the'offieers are now is Viiglnia. The company wag named the roolesville Light Dnigoons.
